This Is LeBeau's Defense When The Playmakers Aren't Healthy...

Did they get a ton of sacks? No...

Did they cause a bunch of turnovers? No...

But...did they give up big plays? A big fat no...

If the Steelers can play sound defense like they did for most of this game (Green-Ellis had some big runs, but still finished with an average less than 4 per carry) and maintian their gaps, they will be able to survive until Harrison is playing better and Polamalu is healthy...

1,000+ yards his rookie season and averaging over 100 yards + 1 TD per game coming into this game. It may not take a genius to know that he has to be taken away, but it doesn't look like too many have been able to do that so far in his career.

After the disaster that was last week, you've got to give Ike props for last night. A.J. Green is 10 times the player that Kenny Britt is, but Ike bounced back from a historically bad performance against Britt to helping to eliminate Cincy's top weapon in a huge division game.
